SAM 053 | Brian Mulligan Close Call Survivor Interview
On May 12, 2012, Atascocita Volunteer Fire Captain Brian Mulligan and his crew responded to a reported gas leak that resulted in a very close call. If the circumstances were just slightly different, Brian could have been severely burned or electrocuted. Yes, at a gas leak call he almost got electrocuted! Listen in and learn how it happened and the valuable lessons Brian and his department took away from this event, including:
\n- \n
- The need to always be vigilant and, if it is possible, to expect the unexpected \u2013 to think about other explanations for what you may be seeing or hearing. As Brian will share, things are not always what they appear to be. \n
- Do not take anything for granted. \n
- Ensure you have a solid standard operating guideline for responses to gas emergencies. Brian\u2019s department didn\u2019t have one then\u2026 but they do now. \n
